Default occasionally not starting.

a few months ago i traded in my 01 sport. engine was strong as ever, everything else including the body was on its way out. so i decided to pick up a new (to me) 07 hemi.

twice now, when turning the key, nothing happens. no click. doesnt turn over. lights dont dim. seriously. absolutely nothing happens

you think that the starter is getting stuck?

Do you have those fancy ignition keys with the imbedded security chip? If the key chip is going bad that could cause that problem. Try using your other keys and see if that has any effect.
